Mistakes Online? Really?

Readers near and far might be interested in a further report on how the youth oriented website rockthevote managed to mistakenly link to a hate web site. It is an interesting discussion of the "deus ex machina" phenomenon of Google and search engine technology at work.

This explanation does not excuse the people at rockthevote from accountability for the mistake. They have apologized profusely and hopefully will be more careful in the future.
